Jinder Recently Underwent Knee Surgery.
Jinder Mahal has been greatly utilized in the 24/7 championship scene even capturing the title on 2 different occasions. The modern-day Mahalrrrrrrrrraja took to Instagram and said that quote "surgery went well".He ended the post stating that his "comeback is going to be legendary". No mention of when he's gonna step inside the ring once again but we're gonna find that out very soon. I hope he comes back better and stronger than ever.
What’s With Dave Meltzer’s Report On Low PPV Buys For Stomping Ground?
Now, you're probably reading this headline like "people are dumb enough to buy WWE PPVs when they can get the network for $9.99?" From the Wrestling Observer Newsletter and Dave Meltzer, Stomping Grounds did about 9,800 to 9,900 buys. He then went on to say that Super showdown had 11,000 buys which is weird because it aired on a Friday afternoon US time.I don't know why but I'm oddly not outraged about this given the factors involved in buying WWE PPVs in 2019 like how bars and restaurants can't show WWE PPVs because they legally can't show it via the network, how apparently 22 million people in the US don't have broadband Internet connection (yea. I felt the same way when I read that number).

That highlight package will start airing in 2020 and was "carved out" of the multi-year BT Sport deal with WWE.That article hasn't mentioned when it will start but what they did mention is that the end date is not specified as of this moment. The motivation for that is for WWE to get traction for their programming (Wow, that's a lot of fors). The last time WWE did that was back in the early 2000s on Channel 4.
